Frequently Asked Questions

It adds a higher register, requiring adjustments to bowing technique and fingerboard positioning, but expands the instrument's melodic possibilities significantly.
The EQ is good for basic adjustments, but serious tone shaping will benefit from an external preamp or effects chain.
Richlite is exceptionally durable and stable, resisting humidity changes, but the tactile feel is subtly different than ebony, which some players might notice.
